Listen to Me loved one. How could I not see only but the best in you? Do you realize it is My Spirit in you that I connect with? It is the Me in you that I call out to. When we fellowship, it is My very own Spirit that is in fellowship. And now, it is no longer only My Spirit but your Spirit! Those who have ears to hear, let them hear what the Spirit is saying (Revelation 2:7, 2:29, 3:22)! Think of it as Me connecting with Me within you, and you are now able to enjoy the benefits, unless, of course, you do not hear this. Only then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear! (Matthew 13:43)
It might make sense if you stop to realize that I do all of this for My Covenant’s sake. Like My words teach you in Deuteronomy 7, I Am a Covenant keeper. I will finish My covenanted plans for your life. I Am the author and finisher of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). Of course, I enjoin you to participate, for My Covenant guarantees good fruit with your participation, and bad fruit if not. It is when you participate that I release My gifts called joy and peace. When you lack these things, and therefore suffer, it is only because you fail to participate in the work being done. Non-participation would be as if a wonderful party was going on all around you, yet you choose to sit in in the corner alone and sulk. Everything around tell you, “Get involved, have fun,” yet you decide to stay in the same isolated place.
My words of encouragement, the reason I speak life and peace over you, are because My Son permitted it to be so. I accepted His sacrifice once and for all. What He did for you enables Me to ensure My Covenant with you. I have sealed My Spirit inside of you, and this is what is continually made to grow in you. Yes, I will continue to advance inside of you, with or without you, but beware of resistance; it can be very painful for you. I implore you to get out of the chair and come from the corner and join the party. Don’t you know by now that the party goes on into eternity? Get up! Dance, rejoice, and enjoy! I Am inside of you and I demand that you give Me glory. You can expect all of My precious gifts after that.
I have so many gifts for you My child. Rejoice, I say rejoice!
